The five sisters were free-spirited when they gathered together. Yun Mengxi wasn’t even embarrassed; instead, she retorted, “Silly girl, you don’t understand. Guys often need this kind of incentive to be more virile…”

Laughter echoed throughout the villa.

It was now 9 a.m.

Liu Shishi had already prepared breakfast, adding extra goji berries to the porridge for nourishment.

While eating breakfast,

Wang Hou called. He got straight to the point, asking Xu Yang’s plans to go to the Xishan Wanshou Palace. He didn’t discourage Xu Yang or try to persuade him otherwise. Instead, he laughed and stated, “Since you’ve made your decision, go for it. The old Daoist priest will also attend the Lu Shan Sect’s transmission prayer ceremony. I’ve also been invited, but I don’t plan on going to Xishan Wanshou Palace. I’m heading to Min Province for a military exercise //

Xu Yang’s mouth twitched…

He could almost guess what Wang Hou was implying.

He knew about a military region in Min Province, which was said to be near the ancestral territory of the Lu Shan Sect.

The so-called military exercise probably consisted of firing artillery shells near the Sect…

“Minister Wang, how about I just go to Min Province instead of Xishan Wanshou Palace? I could use this opportunity to bring down the Lu Shan Sect’s headquarters,” Xu Yang joked.

Wang Hou replied in all seriousness, “That won’t work. Our Spirits Management Bureau can’t casually intervene in martial world disputes. That’s a rule I’ve set.”

You already have your guns pointed at their headquarters, isn’t that considered intervening?

Xu Yang muttered in his mind. However, he was a bit touched. After all, Wang Hou was doing this for him…

“Minister Wang, thank you. Next time you’re in Wu City, I’ll treat you to Guoqiang’s Food Hand Grip!”

After the call,

Xu Yang called Liu Shishi and Yue Qiluo over and instructed, “The Great General of the Ghost Market is dead. The remaining three ghost kings are under our command, and Lord Cui has agreed to eliminate the Ghost Market’s leader. Now, Xi Xia Ghost Market is completely under our control. It’s time to change the way we manage it.”

“I’ve been thinking the same.”

Yue Qiluo nodded, “First of all, some of the ghosts in the Ghost Market cause trouble and harm people. Martial artists who enter the Ghost Market are always cautious, fearful of revealing their human nature. They have to be very careful when doing business, afraid of attracting the attention of malicious spirits.”

“I think we should establish regulations to help these martial artists feel safe in our Xi Xia Ghost Market. Under these conditions, the human-ghost interaction will definitely improve the living conditions of the ghosts in the Ghost Market.”

“The martial artists, in return, can search the Ghost Market for all kinds of treasures…”

“How can that be?”

Xu Yang interrupted Yue Qiluo: “My idea is to strengthen this area of management, to keep these martial artists as far away from our Xi Xia Ghost Market as possible… To enter the Ghost Market, they first need to pass our inspection and approval…otherwise, all the treasures of the Xi Xia Ghost Market will be pocketed by these martial artists, right?”

Now that I own the Xi Xia Ghost Market, why would I let others make a profit?

Currently, all industries under the management of the Great General, the Chiyan Ghost King, and others have been taken over by Yue Qiluo, such as the casinos, restaurants, and brothels… Xu Yang’s plan was to open a bank in the Ghost Market, where all the Yin spirits could exchange their treasures or other items for underworld banknotes.

In time, we’ll have an appropriate exchange rate.

In this way, not only can we improve the lives of the peace-loving ghosts in the Xi Xia Ghost Market, but we can also make quite a lot of money. It’s a win-win situation!

Around 10 a.m., Xu Yang called Ma Long.

In no time, Ma Long arrived in his car.

After getting into the car with Yun Mengxi, Xu Yang said, “Let’s go to Niujia Street’s amusement park to pick someone up first.”

They arrived at the amusement park,

Picked up Yue Niang, and then headed straight to Hedong Airport.

Meanwhile, Xiao Miao had transformed back into her true form and nestled in Yue Niang’s arms throughout the journey, her gaze full of awe whenever she looked at Xu Yang.

Ma Long was also a cat lover.

Seeing that the little orange cat was well-behaved during the journey, not running around or causing a fuss, he said with affection while exiting the car, “This little cat is so cute. May I stroke it?”

As he extended his hand…

“Buzz off!”

Before he could touch Xiao Miao, she cursed in human language, “You little black fattie! Take a look at yourself before you act. You’re so ugly yet you dare to touch me?”

Ma Long: “…..”

His hand froze mid-air, staring at Xu Yang in surprise after a prolonged silence, and asked: “A monster?”

Xu Yang nodded, saying: “Alright, we have arrived at the airport, you can go back first… I’ll call you when I get back.”

He entered the airport.

Only then did Xu Yang remember…

Yun Mengxi and Yue Niang couldn’t buy tickets on their own, so he had no choice but to call Feng Zhaoqing. Feng Zhaoqing asked: “Master Xu, you are at the airport now, right? Which ticket window?”

After understanding the situation, Feng Zhaoqing said: “Master Xu, wait a moment, I’ll arrange it for you.”

It was not more than ten minutes after hanging up the phone when a man appearing to be an airport authority came running over. He personally escorted Xu Yang, Yue Niang, and Yun Mengxi to the first class cabin of the aircraft.

“It seems that after we get back, Feng Zhaoqing will have to get you some ID cards. You can hardly move without an ID in the human world these days.”

The flight took off on time at 12:05.

At 15:35 in the afternoon, it landed at Jiangxi Nanchang International Airport.

After leaving the airport, Xu Yang hired a private car and headed straight for Xishan Town.

Located 25 kilometers west of Nanchang City, Xishan Town is also known as the “West Gate” of Nanchang, with convenient transportation and an ideal location. It is a key construction town in the province and a model town for socialist new rural construction throughout the city.

It is a major tourist town.

Famous tourist attractions include Yanjialing Battery, Nine Dragons Mountain, Luowa Street, Baixian Hill, etc. The most famous tourist attraction, however, is Wanshou Palace!

In Xishan Town, people are accustomed to calling Wanshou Palace the “Yulong Wanshou Palace”.

From Xishan Town, heading southwest, one can see Wanshou Palace as soon as they leave town.

As soon as they entered Xishan Town, Yun Mengxi curiously asked: “Husband, is Daoism so popular in this town? Why are there so many Daoist priests on this main street?”

Yue Niang was also quite intrigued.

Even the little orange cat in her arms was looking around curiously.

Fortunately, Yun Mengxi, Xiao Mao, and Yue Niang all had profound knowledge and were undetectable by ordinary Daoist priests.

“The Lu Shan Sect is holding a grand prayer and gratitude ceremony in Wanshou Palace tomorrow. They’ve invited experts and dignitaries from various Daoist Sects to come and witness the event. Therefore, there are naturally more Daoist priests on the streets,” Xu Yang clarified.

Yun Mengxi pipes up again: “I understand what the prayer ceremony is, but what does ‘returning to the Sect’ mean?”

“The Lu Shan and Jingming Sects have been separated since the Tang Dynasty. During the battle for leadership 20 years ago, our Jingming Sect was tragically defeated. Now, the Lu Shan Sect has seized Wanshou Palace on West Mountain and declared itself the legitimate successor of Heavenly Master Xu. This prayer ceremony is merely a show to prove their legitimacy to the outside world.”

Yue Niang, being a soul from the Underworld Palace, didn’t really understand the succession of the Daoist Sects in the human world.

However, the little orange cat became curious: “Isn’t Yulong Wanshou Palace the ancestral homeland of the Jingming Sect? How did it fall into the hands of the Lu Shan Sect?”

At this question, Xu Yang didn’t know how to answer. He simply laughed and said: “The ancestral homeland of the Jingming Sect will always belong to the Jingming Sect. My visit this time is to reclaim Yulong Wanshou Palace… Let’s find a place to stay first, have a meal, and then visit Yulong Wanshou Palace.”

Although Xishan Town was just a small town, because it was a major tourist town, there were plenty of hotels and guesthouses.

Due to the “grand prayer ceremony,” all the larger hotels were occupied by people from various Daoist Sects and believers from all over the country. As a result, Xu Yang had to settle for a guesthouse, booking two rooms.

After eating a random meal on the street, one human, one spirit, one zombie, and one monster arrived at Xishan Wanshou Palace.

It was not yet six in the afternoon, and tourists were still flocking to Xishan Wanshou Palace. In front of the palace, staff were selling tickets, and one could only enter after buying a ticket. The price of the tickets was not too expensive. It cost 68 per adult, 28 for a child over 1.2 meters, and 38 for a child exceeding 1.4 meters.

However, Xu Yang didn’t want to buy a ticket.

He had traveled from Wu City to Gan Province to make a fuss!

When he was stopped, he sneered and said: “This is outrageous, this is my Jingming Sect’s Wanshou Palace on West Mountain… You want me to buy a ticket to enter my own home?”

“….”

The staff freze. He was just an ordinary person, completely unaware of the underlying grudges and secrets. Xu Yang then said: “Go, find the person in charge of the temple. I want to see who dares to charge me for admission!”
